Are lab diamonds as hard as real diamonds?

Yes, lab diamonds are just as hard as natural diamonds because they have the same chemical composition and crystal structure.


Diamonds are so hard they can not be broken?

Yes, generally, this is true. Especially when one uses the word 'broken' to connote an accident. Rarely, however, if a stone has a flaw or weak spot and is hit 'just right' so as to fracture the stone at the weak spot, then you could say that the stone was 'broken'. Generally, stones with this sort of visible flaw is not sold as jewelry by a reputable dealer and would certainly be documented with any certificate the accompanied a stone.


Is it true that diamonds can never break?

Diamonds are the hardest mineral known. However, a flaw in a stone presents a weak spot, and if the stone is hit 'just right', the stone may fracture along the flaw. However, most diamonds are graded so that stones with visible flaws -- rated as Included -- (most susceptible to chipping or fracturing) are clearly identified, and would therefore be set in such a way so as to protect the stone.


What are the differences between natural diamonds and synthetic diamonds?

Natural diamonds are formed deep within the Earth over millions of years, while synthetic diamonds are created in a laboratory setting using high pressure and temperature. Natural diamonds are rare and can vary in quality, while synthetic diamonds are more consistent in quality and can be produced in larger quantities. Additionally, natural diamonds may have imperfections and inclusions, while synthetic diamonds are typically more flawless.


Are lab grown diamonds as hard as natural diamonds?
